It's been a long Thanksgiving week-end

My kids had 5 days off from school for thanksgiving and when i have my kids, i barely touch the computer so this means "no update" or whatsoever. Now that they are back with their mother (i already miss them :( ), i'm back to work on the OdySim.

But i did work on it in this long week-end (while the kids were sleeping) as i was trying out which resolution i will take for the 16:9 ratio (widescreen) and i think the 1280x720 will be just fine. But since the original Odyssey is displaying at 4:3, i was thinking so that the OdySim will display like this:


So this would be the 4:3 on a 16:9 display, which does make sense. Because if you take a 4:3 screen to display like a 16:9, everything is looking a bit "squashed", like this:


Or check out pictures on the OdySim on a 48-inch TV post to see how the OdySim looks like. So which display is better, the upper one or this one below ?
